July 21, 2019

Radio talk show host Dale Jackson and Dr. Waymon Burke take you through this week’s biggest political stories, including:

— Was President Donald Trump being racist when attacking the “The Squad?”

— What did Secretary of State John Merrill mean when he was talking about the media’s preoccupation with “homosexual activities?”

— Can tolls for the Mobile Bay bridge lead to tolls elsewhere in the state?

Jackson and Burke are joined by State Senator Sam Givhan (R-Huntsville) to discuss prison reform, tolls, lottery and more.

Jackson closes the show with a “parting shot” at the folks who cry racism and sexism at every single turn and how we already watched this tactic fail in 2016.

Dale Jackson is a contributing writer to Yellowhammer News and hosts a talk show from 7-11 am weekdays on WVNN.
